BLACKFIVE: What Price A Folded Flag?

What Price A Folded Flag

Old men talk of battles won, of battles lost, of honor and duty

Young men wrap themselves in flags of glory and march off to war
With sounds of marshal music and cheers ringing in their ears

some to return as whole
some to return as part
some not to return at all

A brilliant poem by John Vaillant, you need to read the rest.
